Crawler - Tank - Excavator - Tracks

... small video with the drive ... more about the vehicle coming soon in another project ...

>> Another improvement to the track links. These can now be printed without support structures, and accidental opening is better prevented. However, they don't have quite as much grip and are a bit thinner in height. Previous versions of the track parts are still available > simply select the corresponding parts on the print plate and duplicate or remove as needed >>
 

Any length - no screws - matching sprockets

All parts are included in the Kettenantrieb xx.3mf file. The
Kettenantrieb xx.stl does not include the screws - they are separate in the
Schrauben xx.stl file.

There are 3 different wheels.
All wheels have a total outer diameter of 56mm and are 18mm wide.

At 1:10 scale, these should be approximately like original 19" wheels ...
 

For the wheel mount, there are the following options in the center:

8.02mm hole
6.02mm hole
Hole with M10 thread, suitable cap head screw with an
option to accommodate a 17-tooth gear
These gears fit a
6V N20 geared motor - at first, it ripped apart my drives with it.

The track links are 28.03mm wide.
The screws are 57.4mm long.

Details about the drive will be available later in another project.
This is only about the crawler tracks.

If changes and adjustments are required, I will gladly try to do so
within certain limits.

The idea to build such track links came from

Please note: The quality of the print has a lot to do with very well-dried filament and a very clean print plate. Please check your printing environment and adjust the print bed and nozzle temperature to your filament.
The models shown here are without exception printed with Bambu Lab P1S.

*Filament dryer: https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/3-fach-filamenttrockner-doerrautomat-neu/3450232254-249-20831

*Container for storing filament spools: https://amzn.to/4eyK6sQ - the filament spools fit in there perfectly

*Silica - granules - https://amzn.to/4fxnWbx - I take 40g per container (4L), if the granules have become dark due to humidity, they are dried in the oven at approx. 70 degrees, they turn orange again and can be reused
